Wed, 24 Feb 2016 18:34:02 +0000http://10corners.com/?p=478#comment-351[…] When I lived in Bangalore, I had a hard time connecting with most of the other women expats in town. They were gilded wives of executives sent to Bangalore to outsource rote work for large corporations. They agreed this was the inevitable future of business and there was little room for my dissenting point of view. […]

Comment on Notes from New York. The Met misses out on the makers. by Corrine https://tencorners.org/2014/01/10/notes-from-new-york-the-met-misses-out-on-the-makers/#comment-178
Mon, 20 Jan 2014 00:28:20 +0000http://10corners.com/?p=723#comment-178I had missed out on hearing about the show (and I am near the Met Museum most Sundays!) but am still eager to see it.
Because I, too, love textiles. I also think they often tell a story. They can be so rich with history and the identity of the people who created them. It would be such a missed opportunity for the Met to have missed that aspect of the craft.
Thanks so much for sharing your insight into this. You write so intelligently, clearly, and passionately. But that’s you, so no surprise. 🙂
I look forward to your next post!

Comment on Digital potential in India? by Malavika https://tencorners.org/2010/10/01/digital-potential-in-india/#comment-4
Thu, 10 Feb 2011 00:27:01 +0000http://tencorners.wordpress.com/?p=66#comment-4Hey Victoria – I couldn’t help immediately linking back to the Radia tapes controversy, that was the tip of a massive iceberg of corruption on the 2G spectrum scan in India, which broke in Nov/Dec 2010.

The fact that none of the big mainstream print newspaper carried headlines for days about one of the most scandalous/juicy/ depraved exhibitions of string pulling and fixing between IndiaCorp and the Government was testament to the limitations on traditional media under the editorial whip. This touches on it slightly (http://blogs.reuters.com/india/2010/12/03/forget-journalistic-ethics-the-radia-tapes-have-wider-implications/) – but it was incredible to watch the tweetosphere go nuts on the scandal christened #barkhagate, and tip the balance in expressing public uproar on the issue. India watchers (like me 😉 ) in the UK got more out of twitter than out of NDTV (understandably) or even respected publications like the Hindu for days.

As always though, the question remains – what happens for all those who AREN’T middle class? I hear the Waag Society and Sarai in India do some great stuff (http://waagsarai.waag.org/).
